The 99-Shiki Shugekiki Stuka

Many things are to be considered when determining if something is 'good.' Quality of the product, ease of use, support base from the manufacturer, and fulfillment of enjoyment. The Wingsy 1/48th scale Mitsubishi Ki-51 is certainly a good [...]

The other P.24

After finishing my P.24A I was left with almost a complete Bulgarian P.24B kit (minus the engine faceplate) and the engine faceplate from the P.24A kit. As I mentioned before - this faceplate was pierced and only used on KTF built P.24s. [...]

1/350 Q Class Zeppelin

The Bristol M.1C was the only British monoplane fighter of the Great War, of which only 125 were built. Most of these aircraft were used for training, but a few squadrons were stationed in Macedonia and Mesopotamia towards the end of the [...]

Arma Hobby 1/72 FM-2 Wildcat

I have reached an age where the parts in 1/72 kits are both too small to see and assemble, so I don't normally stray into the smaller scale kits. I recently received this Arma Hobby 1/72 FM-2 as a gift from my friend Bernard (@lis), so I [...]

1/32 Hannover Cl. II Wingnut Wings 32079

I would like to share with you my first attempt to build a WW1 plane. It is WNW's Hannover Cl. II "White 2" , Bayerische Fliegerschule 5, as I really liked the colour scheme (and the large lozenge decals for the other versions [...]
